ABSTRACT
Melanomas occur mainly in sunlight-exposed skin. Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) patients have 1,000-fold higher incidence of melanoma, suggesting that sunlight-induced “bulky” photoproducts are responsible for melanomagenesis. Sunlight induces a high level reactive oxygen species melanocytes (MCs); oxidative DNA damage (ODD) may thus also contribute to melanomagenesis, and XP gene products participate the repair ODD. We examined effects melanin on UVA (320–400 nm) irradiation-induced ODD UV capacity MC cells UV-induced photoproducts. Our findings indicate irradiation significantly amount formamidopyrimidine glycosylase-sensitive MCs than normal human skin fibroblasts (NHSFs). In contrast, an insignificant UvrABC-sensitive sites either these two types cells. found that, compared NHSFs, reduced photoproducts; H 2 O modified- UVC-irradiated DNAs induce mutation frequency NHSFs; and, complementation group A (XPA), C, G deficient XPA NHSFs. These results suggest that: ( i ) sensitizes induction but not bulky ii susceptibility UVA-induced carcinogenesis; iii contributes melanoma patients.
